Answer

$P=\begin{bmatrix} 1&0\\3&1 \end{bmatrix}$ and $D=\begin{bmatrix} 1&0\\0&-1 \end{bmatrix}$

Work Step by Step

$det\begin{bmatrix} 1-\lambda&0\\6&-1-\lambda \end{bmatrix}=0$ $(1-\lambda)(-1-\lambda)=0$ $\lambda=1, \lambda=-1$ $\lambda=1:\begin{bmatrix} 1\\3 \end{bmatrix}$ $\lambda=-1:\begin{bmatrix} 0\\1 \end{bmatrix}$ $P=\begin{bmatrix} 1&0\\3&1 \end{bmatrix}$ and $D=\begin{bmatrix} 1&0\\0&-1 \end{bmatrix}$
